  • Chainlink’s price action has been limited to sideways action following the late July crash.

Chainlink (LINK) price might continue to suffer at the hands of the bears due to the lack of activity on the network.

Worsening the situation are the broader market cues, which, despite turning bullish, haven’t found a strong momentum yet.

Chainlink’s price might find some trouble in recovering its recent losses. This is because Chainlink’s NVT ratio has reached its highest level in four years and eight months. This is signaling potential bearish trends for the crypto asset going forward. 

This elevated NVT ratio suggests that the network’s value might be overextended relative to its transaction volume. Such a condition often precedes a price correction.

In addition to the NVT ratio, Chainlink’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also in the negative zone. The RSI is a key momentum indicator, and its current position suggests that LINK is experiencing bearish momentum.

While bullish momentum might be building up as the rising RSI indicates, the altcoin may struggle to find upward momentum until the neutral line is flipped into support. The lack of buying pressure reflected in the RSI could prevent any significant price recovery without additional positive catalysts.

Given these indicators, Chainlink might require stronger cues or external factors to recover from this bearish phase. 

Chainlink’s price at $10.42 is far from taking back the profits it lost in the recent decline. With the altcoin’s value being at a ten-month low, LINK might need more than prayers to push it back up.

For now, the most probable outcome appears to be consolidation under $11.00. The chances of breaking out above it are slightly low and could remain rangebound above $9.35.

However, if $11.00 is flipped into support, the altcoin could note an uptrend and potentially breach $11.99. Crossing this barrier would invalidate the bearish thesis and enable further recovery.
